I wonder if Les Holroyd, who now lives in Germany, has heard this version of one of his best songs...? We used to play this song in Beirut back in the day during the War, with all the lights switched off, and turn up the volume very loud, to mask out the sounds of the bombs in the night, and sail on into the night dreaming our dreams of love & peace... What a song!!

[@oliverjames3744]

Your experience is very similar to mine. I lived my youth in Beirut, and BJH were my favourite band. This song by Les sends chills down my spine.

[@user-ff8vi7ln6i]

Sweet! What years did you live in Beirut from...? I was born there and left in 1984, but returned in 87 and then fled in 89 from the insane Syrian army bombing....

[@oliverjames3744]

@@user-ff8vi7ln6i I was born in 71 in Beirut and lived all the war and the bloody Syrian bombing. I left to the UK in 94 then to Canada in 98. I have been a Canadian ever since. BJH's music was an amazing relief. One anecdote I have about them, when I got my first email address in the 90's I wrote to BJH telling them that my story is similar to their "Child of the Universe" . To my amazement, John Lees replied very expressively. I guess back then, not a lot of people sent them emails.

[@michaelwilken1920]

What a BEAUTIFUL interpretation of this wonderful BJH song. Reminds on Aug 30, 1980. 250,000 in front of the Reichstag in (West) Berlin. Thousands on the other side of the wall. BJH was playing into the sunset on that warm summer night, playing to the world that the wall has to disappear. Music can move something. Thank you for this version.

[@Bobsytube]

@@FleeshOfficial Michael you are so lucky to have been there! I would have loved to have been at that concert listening to BJH at their peak as a band...& to be in Berlin at that poignant & pivotal time amongst the winds of change... BJH ar LEGENDS!!

[@jamujesperandersen8699]

My life’s concert (but but only on vinyl). Should have seen Them in Denmark but John Lees fell from a stage days before and broke his hands or arm so the concert was cancelled😂.

[@johnbailey2824]

What a fabulous thing the internet can be... Forget Social Media with its nastiness. Get on You tube and listen to these guys playing some understated classics with ridiculous perfection. I for one am glad that you are playing to the world tonight. BJH concerts were such a joy for me in the 70's. Peace and love from England.

[@FleeshOfficial]

Thank you for such kind words!!! 💙

[@davidmcmillan8408]

I normally disapprove of cover versions, especially when they’re of BJH songs - but this is sublime. Get yourselves to England and come bring the house down at The Blues Bar in Harrogate.

Merveilleusement bien interprétée même si ce n'est pas l'originale, le frisson est là et c'est toujours aussi poignant :)

[@unchattytwit]

Wonderful cover. Eyes of the Universe is a horribly underrated album. Even BJH never presented or gave those, mostly great, songs on the LP, the due credit they deserved. It's a big ask but how about covering the whole album in your inimitable hard rock style because BJH didn't quite nail with the hard, raw rock attack and atmosphere that you can give it? That would be amazing and well worth it for all BJH lovers, and Fleesh lovers, out there. Rock on.

[@FleeshOfficial]

Thank you so much for your words and the suggestion!!! 😊

Certainement un des plus beau morceau de musique écrit au vingtième siècle et magnifiquement joué par ses deux artistes Bravo et merci

[@coverdrive7509]

Bien d'accord avec toi. Les Holroyd est un compositeur génial et cette reprise sublime le morceau.

[@RonaldLindeboom]

I adored Barclay James Harvest for many years and bought probably 25 of their albums. This is a beautiful version of a great song from a band that eroded into ignominious fractious dissention. Such a sad ending to a one-time great band. Nice to see your tribute.

[@grizzpin]

Despite the "ignominious, fractious dissention", John Lees' Barclay James Harvest are still touring and wowing audiences and are releasing a new album next year. So are Barclay James Harvest featuring Les Holroyd, although feedback and reviews suggest that JLBJH are the better band. John Lees won an award at the Classic Rock annual awards ceremony earlier this year for "Progressive Rock Visionary". I saw them in concert a few weeks ago, and it was a worthwhile, nostalgic and heart-warming experience. It would be nice to see John and Les back on the stage together, but that's about as likely as seeing the UK and the EU reunite!

[@stevenaustin8274]

Makes me think of a good friend and much missed Mel Pritchard boozing in the hare and hounds in uppermill saddleworth

[@coverdrive7509]

And Wolly as well even he 'd already left the band when eyes was released. I grew up with this band and so happy to see such a wonderful cover with modern sound.

[@geertdenaeyer3268]

Veel te weinig gekend in de lage landen

[@profahn7353]

Agree that the song and the covers are great. But both fractions of BJH are in fact much better than BJH were in the 90s when John and Les were still playing together... so there's an upside to this

[@mayenarie]

Vocal and instrumental a masterpiece, what a beautiful cover.

[@SirEponymous]

Once covid has blown away, there are huge audiences here in the UK (rock's motherland) who would just love to hear you guys - although you'd need at least three very accomplished session musicians to fill the holes that Celo would have to vacate to stick to that marvellous lead guitar.

[@danishphoto]

6 stars out of 5 for this amazing and well done interpretation of a beautiful song, from one of the best BJH albums ever - and my first BJH album which started me exploring the groups music and they are still one of my favorite groups of all time. But sadly - too few know the BJH music - at least in Denmark, where I live.

Greetings from the "little red dot" Singapore. I'm also a fan for BJH and they are very underated.
